I just wanted to share something my fiance' came up with. She is a jewelry designer and has a shop with her daughter. They asked if I had an outlet for some of their items and I told them I would share it with everyone here at CF. So I started them an Etsy Shop account to showcase what they have done. And this is the first items! Check it out and let me know what you think!

Balance between Messianic Judaism?

I'm not too sure what you are getting at. Baptism can happen at any stage in someone's life. I would prefer people to use it as a rough equivalent to a bar / bat mitzvah. In days gone by the child would have been presented in Church on the 8th day with Baptism following when the 'child' was old enough to learn the catechism - usually as a teen; Baptism would follow at the Easter Day after successfully learning the catechism.

Being an evangelical SHOULD mean taking the whole Book seriously (though for many it is just the latter part). They are usually well versed in what the latter part of The Book says as well as the prophecies in the former part. Charismatics are evangelicals plus the gifts of the Holy Spirit being an essential part of Christian life today.

The above is an incredibly small nutshell view of the subject matter.

Are you saying they do not honor torah? Do they keep the 10 commandments, eat clean/kosher meat diet, holy days?
If they do not, then how can they bring balance to mj? How does catechism support torah?

Ok - now I see where you are going with this. The word 'evangelical' relates, almost wholly, to Christians. for obvious reasons. That said, the Christians most likely to become Messianic belevers are evangelicals because they are more likely, in their acceptance of The Book at face value, so to speak, to be open to teaching along Messianic lines.

The word 'evangelical' does not impute, or imply. any previous connection with the various rites of passage in Judaism. In fact evangelicals can be anti-semitic, as can happen with the every group in every other non-Jewish religion.

However, evangelicals are more prominent in the Messianic movement than any other group of Christians. They bring with them a keen attention to the truth of the word, in contrast with liberals who tend to dismiss large chunks of The Book as a matter of course.

'Evangelical' does NOT apply to any other religion, again for obvious reasons.
